Born 51/2 months gestation, worried about having avm. are premature adults known to have avm(brain vessel malformation)? im terrified to have a baby
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brain AVM: Preterm babies do have various possibilities of neural developmental disorders and brain vascular malformation is one of them. I presume that incidence is relatively higher than term babies.The exact incidence in preterm babies is not known.
